Cleveland, OH – Effective February 1, 2018– Arkema announced the expansion of the geographic distribution territory of Palmer Holland for the Orgasol® and Rilsan® D products for coating additive applications.
Palmer Holland’s distribution territory will now extend from New England, across the northern U.S., to the West Coast, including the states of Montana, Wyoming, Idaho, Washington, Oregon, California, Nevada, Utah, and Arizona. Accounts in the region currently serviced directly by Arkema will continue in the same manner.
The Orgasol® and Rilsan® D products are high performance coating additives, designed mainly for liquid and UV coatings. Based on Arkema’s specialty polyamide chemistry, these high performance additives improve multiple performance aspects of the formulation, such as abrasion resistance, chemical resistance, gloss reduction, hardness, and also texture creation. These products are used in multiple market segments, such as coil, wood, automotive, electronics, and transfer paper.
"Since 2009, the Palmer Holland organization has done an outstanding job promoting these high value added products," commented Josh Gingras, North American Business Manager. "The Orgasol® and Rilsan D® product ranges are a good fit with the Palmer Holland organization. We look forward to supporting them as they grow the business in the expanded distribution territory.”
Ron Zmich, Vice President of Sales at Palmer Holland, added, “It has been a pleasure partnering with Arkema’s specialty polyamides team over the past 10 years. We look forward to contributing to continued growth in this product space for years to come across this expanded service footprint.”
